Chapter 189: The matter with the Thorin’s gold.

The way she used their names directly, avoiding their royal titles made it seem as if they had an incredibly close relationship. The lucky halo on her head was already working over time, arousing feelings of pity for her from the noble lords in the court.

Unfortunately for Emmah, the king was not one of those being influenced by the lucky halo. He was wearing a thumb ring that Elarin had given him. The ring had come from Sigrid and it kept the king from being influenced by outside magic forces, especially the lucky halo.

The doors opened and prince Benjamin breezed in, talking at the top of his voice. "Lady Emmah, there is no need for you to be weighed down by guilt for doing the right thing. All you did was inform the king about what you were told and what you witnessed. If it is true that these things are facts, I am sure that the king will reward you.

As my brother the crown prince likes to say, in Eldoria, we are all subject to the law and must adhere to it."

He stopped right next to Emmah and bowed before the king. "My apologies father, I did not mean to...."

"Save the apologies Benjamin, I have had a very tiring day and as far as I know you are still being punished so your presence before me right now is a direct slap to my face. You have grown a habit of disobeying my commands lately."

Benjamin’s face immediately paled, he shook his head frantically. "It is not disobedience father, I just rushed here when I heard about the matter of the Thorin’s hidden gold. I guessed that you would need one of us, your princes to oversee the case and as my brother our crown prince is married to a Thorin, his judgement in this case cannot be trusted." He gave Roland what looked to be a an apologetic smile.

Roland sneered in return which made Benjamin uncomfortable. In the past, no matter what he did or said, his brother brushed it off with a simple smile. It seemed, things were changing.

King Raff’s response was not what Benjamin expected to hear.

"Benjamin you are grounded for another month. I do not want to see so much as your shadow in the city and if I hear that you have flaunted my orders for any reason, you will spend the rest of your time out in a dungeon. Am I clear?" King Raff gestured for red knights to remove Benjamin from the throne room and return him to his estate.
